The article doesn't say what the jokes were!



Oh my good god I love this guy


This is a trend I hate with the reporting on any controversy. The "respectable" outlets refuse to publish what someone has said which is causing the controversy (and not because it would open them to legal risk, to be clear). It would be like if reporting on other crimes just said someone had committed "a crime", and refused to give any detail. Yes, news articles can have upsetting content, because real life is upsetting, and they have a duty to report it


Many times the Daily Mirror has a better report because they publish the aleguely problematic content.


He's got a bunch of stuff on youtube.

He's pretty funny. And as far as standup goes it's honestly pretty tame.


I know the jokes, but I can't tell you because I'm afraid to get banned from here


Perhaps you are making a joke that flew over my head, but in case you are new here, that not the way that this place works. You are not going to get banned for repeating the jokes that got someone fired, especially just after they won a court case saying they were actually funny. Your comment may well get flagged, because flagging is done by users, some of whom will flag just about anything they disagree with. But bans are done by Dan, and he's a good moderator who doesn't ban people for silly reasons like this. Have some faith.


The reporter doesn't want to lose her job, either
